I guess you should have used the --rewrite-root option when you did the
clone. Then the metadata in the log entries would already point to the
right URL and you could just adjust the URL in .git/config and drop the
rewriteRoot entry there.

Basically, this should work:

Change the URL to the repo in your .git/config.
Use filter-branch to change all git-svn-id lines in the log entries.
Delete the .rev_map.* files in .git/svn/*
Run git svn fetch (rebuilds the .rev_map.* files).

The filter-branch call should use the --msg-filter option to change the
log entries and should apply to all the svn branches/tags/trunk (or just
use " -- --all", if there's nothing that may not be filtered).
